Abstract

We describe a novel nucleoside analog, 2'-deoxy-3'-thiacytidine (BCH-189), in which the 3' carbon of the ribose ring of 2'-deoxycytidine has been replaced by a sulfur atom. In MT-4 T cells, this compound had significant time- and dose-dependent antiviral activity against five different strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) (mean 50% inhibitory dose, 0.73 microM); known 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT)-resistant HIV-1 variants did not exhibit cross-resistance to it. BCH-189 also suppressed HIV-1 replication in the U937 monocytoid cell line as well as in primary cultures of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells; in these latter systems, suppression was fuller and longer lasting than that induced by AZT. Moreover, BCH-189 was less toxic than AZT in cell culture. BCH-189 may be a promising drug for the treatment of HIV-1-associated disease.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
